More streets in Fishtown need to be closed to cars on Halloween.

JD Vance can go fuck himself. 1. Hospitals need translators to treat anyone who walks through our doors. 2. What hospital has 9 in-person translators in one unit at the same time? Most translation is done via a phone service. Again, JD Vance can fuck right off.
JD Vance whines about translators in hospitals and says, "how about if everyone just spoke English?"

It’s true.
The nicest weather in the USA today will be in and around Sioux Falls, SD, Virginia Beach, VA, and Philadelphia, PA.

This is fucking madness. I hope all of the attorneys for the goverment are sanctioned and a TRO keeps the course open. Reyes should also seek testimony from National Trust Links. If the administration can do this to the golf course, they can do it to any NPS site.
The National Park Service confirms it has signed a new lease for the East Potomac golf course that will shut it down on Nov. 15. storage.courtlistener.com/re…

I feel like Philly mayors consistently underestimate the degree to which new initiatives are undercut by the city's chronic inability to provide basic services, like consistently maintaining rec centers, parks, streets etc etc
.@PhillyMayor Cherelle Parker tells @EmilyRPeck that the city hopes to launch its historic mortgage program “before the end of 2026.” “Imagine getting a mortgage, a 30-year commitment, with no PMI,” Parker said, and accessible “with less-than-perfect credit.” #AxiosLive

Can he be impeached on January 3?
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Novel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Dan S Sullivan should make this easy and drop out for being a member of the party who is pushing this bullshit.
JUST IN: Judge Gleason in Alaska sounds deeply skeptical of DOJ's 11th hour lawsuit there to halt certification if Sen. Dan Sullivan loses. She grants Dems' motion for expedited consideration and notes DOJ waited four months to sue over the ballot. s3.documentcloud.org/documen…

BREAKING: Judge Reyes has issued a preliminary injunction over the golf course and begins with this: "Rarely, if ever, has the United States Department of Justice urged a federal court not to believe the sitting President." ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin…

Message from a reader: “I’m morally opposed to paying higher taxes to lower the tickets for people who almost kill me in their cars every day.”
There's been a flurry of talk this month in the D.C. Council about whether parking and traffic fines should be reduced. But the reality is that making tickets cheaper for drivers will be costly for the city, and that could complicate any real action: washingtonsun.com/metro/dc-r…

SEPTA after a decade plus of recovery-induced modal shift, a pandemic, inflation, multiple budget battles, leadership shakeup, and depletion of capital funds

What a slimy little traitorous bitch.
Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff to Vladimir Putin today: “You talk so much about Trump being a humanitarian, you are a humanitarian also, sir. And I salute that. I commend you.”

A bailed-out company in an R&D and capital intensive business, with a slate of mostly uncompetitive products, can't find anyplace to deploy $20 billion besides stock buybacks. Another sign the US auto industry is heading for the scrap heap wsj.com/business/autos/gener…

The corruption is staggering.
Family of Venezuelan billionaire seeking pardon hires Alina Habba to be GC at a company it’d just set up. Guarantees her $50M over 4 years. Habba was then a senior advisor to AG Bondi, charged with overseeing US attys. Billionaire got the pardon. by @tylerpager nytimes.com/2026/10/20/us/po…

These 32 #BloodBikes commemorate the 32 people killed on Bloor, Yonge & University in 20-years before bike lanes were built. After bike lanes were installed only one tragic loss of life has occurred in 6-years since 2020. Bike lanes keep EVERYONE save, not only people cycling.

This man is a piece of shit.
Trump: "Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Trump's remarks were made the same day Russia conducted a drone strike killing six civilians including children in a Kharkiv region park, plus missile and energy infrastructure attacks leaving hundreds of thousands without power. kyivindependent.com/what-russias-d… kyivindependent.com/russian-drone-… kyivindependent.com/russia-strikes…

We need a full investigation of who knew what, and when. Nick should be immediately fired regardless because one of the most serious (and preventable) NFL player safety stories of my lifetime happened on his watch. Doug Peterson was fired for infinitely less.
If this reporting pans out, this is the biggest Eagles scandals in a long time. Forget the offense. Forget wins and losses. Forget all that. Pulmonary embolism can kill. Letting Hurts spend the night in the ER with a clot and letting him play the day after, post/pre flight?!
